A groundbreaking study by Mass Eye and Ear associates tinnitus with undetected auditory nerve damage, challenging previous beliefs and opening new paths for treatment through auditory nerve regeneration.

I have a persistent 12,500Hz ringing in my ears. Doesn’t bother me (yet), but I know some older folks that have issues sleeping because of it. Hope the research is productive!
(I uses this app to find the tone I hear constantly)
well, my dog certainly hates that! I think about 13k in my right ear but it almost seems like it’s more than one tone?
Yeah, very likely a mix of tones. For me it’s primarily 13.9kHz, but occasionally a much lower tone in just my right ear
If you have trouble sleeping, I’ve found Pink Noise a great help (that’s noise with equal energy per octave, instead of per frequency like White Noise).
I mostly have tinnitus above 16kHz (used to hear up to 20kHz as a youngster), but it’s progressing with age and from time to time get the “ringing of death” of some cells dying (fortunately not all frequencies seem to add to the tinnitus).
